SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITHOUT MEAT



30 lb. tomatoes
1 cup chopped onions
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chopped celery or green pepper
1 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced (optional)
4-1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. oregano
4 tbsp. minced parsley
2 tsp. black pepper
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil


YIELD: About 9 pints


PROCEDURE: CAUTION: DO NOT INCREASE THE PROPORTION OF
ONIONS, PEPPERS OR MUSHROOMS. Wash tomatoes and dip in
boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds or until skins split.
Dip in cold water and slip off skins. Remove cores and
quarter tomatoes. Boil 20 minutes, uncovered, in large
saucepan. Put through food mill or sieve. Saute onions,
garlic, celery or peppers, and mushrooms (if desired) in
vegetable oil until tender. Combine sauted vegetables and
tomatoes and add remainder of spices, salt and sugar. Bring
to a boil. Simmer, uncovered, until thick enough for
serving. At this time the initial volume will have been
reduced by nearly one-half. Stir frequently to avoid
burning. Fill hot jars, leaving 1-inch headspace. Adjust
lids and process.
